Co-op Unlocked

Description
BOTH HOST AND CLIENTS ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE THIS INSTALLED

Details:

Tabs at the top of the home screen and some home buttons are unlocked for co-op clients.
Below are changes for clients unless specified for host. To give permissions, press the escape menu and click on the players name then give mechlab access (if it says mechlab access restricted).

Starmap:

Mission icons, conflict zones, merc zones and tracked quests are now visible
Clients can suggest travel locations to hosts
Hosts will receive a notification they can click to highlight suggested route
Basic system intel is shown, the button for advanced info is hidden, too many bugs to get working
Starmap search (from YAML)


Mech Management Screen:

Enables viewing cold storage
Can move mechs from cold storage but not to CS
Enables editing mech names when editing paint job


Barracks:

Shows hireable and hired pilots
Can hire pilots, requires Mechlab permissions enabled from the Escape menu
Dismissing is disabled for clients


Markets:

Buy mechs from the market, requires Mechlab permissions enabled from the Escape menu
Allows buying mechs even if active bays are full for both host and clients
Buy weapons/equipment from the market, requires Mechlab permissions enabled from the Escape menu
Can sell mechs and weapons/equipment, Mechlab permissions enabled from the Escape menu
Adds selling 10 items at a time (from YAML)


Operations screen:

Clients can set the current objective
Shows view system button for current objective
Shows career/upgrades progress now


Important:
Mechwarrior 5 was not made with this degree of Co-op interaction in mind. Many important things are not replicated to clients. I've hacked together ways to try and get that information but not every piece or update is accounted for nor can it be. Some odd side effects may occur. I recommend backing up your saves but it should be fine.

Thanks! Perfect timing, as I just started playing co-op with a buddy and the UI limitations were killing me.
